Profound determination and heightened intuitive sensitivity are suggested by this birthdate. With your dynamic personality and love of the new, you are often engaged in the initiation of projects. This suggests that new challenges and beginnings can often bring about real transformation and compensate for periods of procrastination or depression. By developing your inner intuition or sixth sense, however, you can come to understand yourself at a deeper level.
If motivated, you work hard and can be highly dedicated, yet the restlessness indicated by your ruling planet, Mars, does not allow you to stand still. If inspired, you can be quite enthusiastic and creative, with a spontaneous idealism; nevertheless, your tendency to be secretive and uncommunicative may leave others wondering what you are up to next. Although you often project a bold front, you are in fact concealing a shy or sensitive soul. It is usually through learning to let go of the past and overcoming a tendency to torment yourself over emotional issues that you can make real progress and develop self-discipline. You may have to learn to differentiate between inner strength, relentless determination, and stubborn arrogance, which others can perceive as hostility and indifference.
After you reach the age of thirteen, when your progressed Sun moves into Taurus, there is an increased need for stability and material security. This continues until the age of around forty-three, when your progressed Sun enters Gemini. This is a turning point that will bring to prominence many new interests as well as a stronger desire for communication at all levels. This may even involve learning new skills. At the age of seventy-three, when your progressed Sun moves into Cancer, you become more aware of issues concerning your home, family, and emotional sensitivity.

Linked to your Sun’s degree, this star indicates that usually you can achieve your heart’s desire as long as you are clear about your objectives. Sometimes after you obtain what you want, you are at a loss as to what to do next. However, since one of your natural attributes is knowing the right people and being at the right place at the right time, this state does not tend to last long.
• Positive:warm heart, joy, popularity, attractive personality
• Negative:self-conceit, excess
Hidden from public view is your sensitive and idealistic emotional nature, which may involve you in reflective contemplation or self-analysis. In your desire for perfection you may find that people do not live up to your high ideals. Guard against an inclination toward becoming suspicious or a fear of being lonely or abandoned. Fortunately, you are blessed with a profound intuition, which when developed ensures that the more spiritual side of your nature protects you and helps you overcome any difficult situations.
Mentally sharp and hardworking, you possess instincts that give you an uncanny ability to assess others’ characters. Using this psychological skill with people enables you to avoid becoming nervous and impatient by working diplomatically and amicably. You are able to judge how well you are using this skill in your relationships by assessing whether you have lost your sense of humor and become too serious. When your energy is flowing positively you also have an excellent sense of spontaneity. You can particularly benefit from physical exercise, such as martial arts, sports, or yoga.
Your leadership ability and capacity for hard work mark you out for advancement in any field of endeavor. You like to be in control and not subservient to others, so you are likely to prosper in management and executive positions or may prefer to work for yourself. By staying calm under crisis, you show your true strength and gain the admiration of others, which is excellent for a career in a position of authority. Certainly others will value your ability to take charge and your approach to new and original ideas. If drawn to the theater or film, you can be a good actor, producer, or director, and your strong individuality may express itself in writing, art, or music.
Famous people who share your birthday include director Francis Ford Coppola, musician Ravi Shankar, politician Jerry Brown, poet William Wordsworth, actor James Garner, singer Billie Holiday, and martial artist Jackie Chan.
Very analytical and detail-oriented, likes to observe and investigate things, and has a keen, inventive eye. Analytical and thoughtful, individuals with a number 7 birthdate are frequently critical and self-absorbed. With a constant need for greater self-awareness, you enjoy gathering information and may be interested in reading, writing, or spirituality. Although shrewd, you may be inclined to be skeptical or to overrationalize issues and become lost in details. A tendency to be spiritual or mystical and aloof suggests that at times you feel misunderstood or out of place. The subinfluence of the number 4 month indicates that you are practical yet highly intuitive and receptive. Because you are a sensitive individual with intense, deep feelings, learn to relax by being cheerful, and avoid overtaxing your mind under stressful situations. A tendency to be enigmatic or secretive usually leads you to develop the art of asking subtle questions, without letting anyone know what you really think.
• Positive:education, trust, meticulousness, idealism, honesty, psychic ability, scientific ability, rationality, reflection
• Negative:unfriendliness, loner tendency, secretiveness, skepticism, confusion, deceit, detachment, coldness
When it comes to love, you are liable to be either highly expressive and spontaneous or withdrawn and emotionally inhibited. As you learn to balance these extremes, you accept people as they are rather than expect them to live up to your high ideals. By channeling this idealism into creative expression, humanitarian endeavors, or spiritual awareness, you become less serious about your personal life. Since you have a wonderful charm that can attract friends and admirers, you are sure to have an active social life. There may, however, be a possible conflict between your own personal desires and your work or duties. You need deep intimacy but may have to guard against becoming too preoccupied with self-interest, which can separate you from others. You are more suited to someone who is as friendly and hardworking as you are.

There are two distinct sides to the characters of those born on April 7: a positive and idealistic side, which inspires them to work unstintingly toward progress; and a more negative, impatient side, which has a tendency to manifest itself when these individuals are frustrated. Although it may seem that these characteristics are in direct opposition to each other, they are, in fact, interlinked by cause and effect. When April 7 people are seized by the desire to bring about improvement—be it in the humanitarian sphere or, more specifically, with regard to a work-related task—they will enthusiastically and whole-heartedly invest their considerable gifts of imagination, logic and tenacity into the project. When, however, they encounter obstacles in their paths, they are prone to rush headlong at them, and then, like the Arian goat that is their astrological attribute, explode with anger when their repeated butts fail to clear the way. This temperamental reaction is even more pronounced if they were also born in the Chinese year of the dragon. The talents of those born on April 7 are versatile: their idealism and sensitivity indicates potential suc- cess in literary, musical and dramatic pursuits, while their inquiring minds and methodical approach suits them for scientific research. In whatever field they make their profession, they need to be given as much autonomy as possible; they make good leaders, but usually only on their own terms. Similarly, although generally sunny and relaxed in their personal relation- ships, they will chafe if restricted by others’ ground rules—especially in adolescence—and here again, if things are not going their way, they are prone to tem- peramental outbursts.
